Wrapped up in Grace

Wakin up with the beautiful feelin of a new day
Knowing that whatever happends, it is your loving & righteous way.
Somehow this knowledge fills me with an overwhelming peace
Its my pride that melts away as your joy comes to my release.

Walkin in perfect confidence as you lift up my head
The change in my heart is a result of those word that you said.
Its somethin powerful about your mighty hand that leads me forth
Bein your princess makes me realise that you’ve given me an unlimited worth.

Waiting in expectation to see more of your glory
I want it to be the start, the message and the end of my story.
The fathers heart is big enough to love all that He has made
There can never be a greater sacrifice than the price of our sin, that His son already paid.

I'ts the day before christmas & I find myself looking out at the dancin snow.. I'm dreaming. and smiling:) Most kids are already under their blankets, incredible excited for the days ahead; CHRISTMAS is finally here :D I'm that kind of person that jumps up & down by this christmas excitement. It's something about the suddenly interest of this season, the story, and the love that binds families & friends together again. I've always loved how christmas gets so special because it just happens once a year, though I always start bein excited about it mostly in october; when the christmas candy gets into the stores... I also love how christmas is called the giving season. I know how fun it is to receive a gift, but I love even more the excitement & smiles that shows up when I give gifts to others. Especially when I know that they get exactly what they wished the most. Thats why I cannot stop smiling when I think about how happy my Heavenly Father is because I've received His most Precious gift; Jesus.. This gift that christmas is really all about.

It's time to unwrap it for you who hasn't.. :)

I wish yah all a blessed & wonderful christmas <3

IT'S CHRISTMAS TIME IN NYC

The first snowflakes have fallen, the air is colder, a warmer jacket is bought. As the christmas lights appears to show up at every building, around the trees, the city is suddenly dressed up in white & blue.. red & green.. and the christmas feelin is impossible not to sense and be embraced by. This month, december, is all filled with expectation and joy. Maybe we also learn the secrets of christmas; GIVE.

December started perfectly with Marlén, Brit-Silje & Si-jane visiting! Whow. Those girls you cannot not admire & love. I think all of us girls really have experienced something life changing these days we've now spent together. We've shared our lives again, humbled, upright, been our total self. We've been reminded of what a true friendship means. We've learned the importance of always be grateful. We've learned more about love. We've smiled.. and laughed. A lot:)

Some captured moments of an amazing time with the best girls you could possible find!
